Someone once said that only change itself never changes. That certainly seems to be the case with me.

I can measure (测量) my life by the changes that have taken place. And now I am deciding on another change. We are selling our boat after fifteen years of summers on the water.

We bought the boat shortly after we moved to Canada’s west coast. We then joined a boating club and we enjoyed cruising among the Southern Gulf Islands, meeting friends who likes doing cruising on the sea. Skukum, as well we call the boat, has carried us safely through both smooth and very rough water. At about ten meters long it is large enough to be comfortable to live on for days at a time. Also, the scenery in our part of the world is fantastic with sea birds, dolphins and even whales.

We feel it is time, however, to do something different. Admittedly, this change will be made partly because boating is an expensive hobby. Boats require a lot of maintenance (维修), use lots of gas and cost a lot even when they are sitting still (静止的). Beyond the cost is the feeling that we have done just about everything we want to do with the boat. We could continue to spend summer weekends on the water or we could make a change in our lifestyle and start doing road trips to places we haven’t seen across North America. As we have children and grandchildren on both the east and west coasts, driving trips will be more necessary. So it’s time to make a choice and, having now made it, it’s time to make a change.

Like most changes there will be both benefits and regrets but we feel the time has come. There is no doubt that we will miss the boat but we will also open a new door in our lives. Hopefully, we have made the right decision.
